TEAS 7 Math Practice Test

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To calculate the sale price Gordon paid, we first find the discount amount by multiplying the original price by the discount percentage: $472 * 0.30 = $141.60. The sale price is the original price minus the discount amount: $472 - $141.60 = $330.40. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A is incorrect because it only represents the discount amount, not the final sale price. Choice B is incorrect as it does not account for the discount. Choice C is incorrect as it is higher than the correct sale price.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the cost of one box of crackers, we set up a system of equations. Let x be the cost of one container of yogurt and y be the cost of one box of crackers. From the given information, we have: 4x + 3y = 9.55 2x + 2y = 5.90 Solving the system of equations, we find x = 1.45 and y = 2.25. Therefore, one box of crackers costs $2.25, making choice C the correct answer. Incorrect choices: A: $1.75 - Incorrect because it doesn't match the calculated cost. B: $2.00 - Incorrect, as it does not align with the calculated cost. D: $2.50 - Wrong, as it does not correspond to the calculated value.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 23%. To calculate this, we add up the percentages of the other three options (49% + 18% + 10% = 77%) and subtract it from 100% (100% - 77% = 23%). This gives us the percentage of funds donated to support construction costs. The rationale is that the sum of percentages of all options must add up to 100%. Choice A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not add up to 100% when combined, making B the correct answer.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because in a negatively skewed distribution, the tail of the histogram extends to the left, indicating that there are more data points on the right side. In Group B, the histogram is negatively skewed, meaning it has a higher mean than Group A. Option A is incorrect because Group A is positively skewed, not negatively skewed. Option B is incorrect because Group A has a lower mean than Group B. Option D is incorrect because Group B has a higher mean than Group A due to its negatively skewed distribution.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine the amount of blood used for further tests, we first find 1/6 of 500 ml: 1/6 * 500 = 83.33 ml. Therefore, the correct answer is C (83.33 ml), rounded to the nearest hundredth. Choice A (83) is incorrect as it does not account for the decimal value. Choices B (83.3) and D (83.34) are also incorrect as they do not accurately round the calculated value to the nearest hundredth.
